Goalkeeper situation.
Re: Goalkeeper situation.
I thought today Stanway had a good match and some great saves but this pass out from the back [SwearFilter] is not his strong point. Stand by previous post if this is Farmans last season with us then I'm disappointed with the club for not playing him today. Obviously if wrong we have 2 good GK next season

Re: Goalkeeper situation.
I don’t think the pitch helped. Their keeper saved a few in an unorthodox way. Both missed judged the bounce. How good was the barrow lad to barrow lad chuck at anyway did for the newby goal

Re: Goalkeeper situation.
Would probably keep Farman in as no. 1, given the choice, with Stanway as capable, young back-up. Farman’s experience and consistency over a longer time would get him the shirt for me, for another season at least. However, if he’s off (‘Head of Goalkeeping’ has been advertised at Fleetwood) then Stanway with Daniels (who is still registered) as back-up maybe. Then again, if Farms was off - as other have said - it’s odd he didn’t get any sort or run out or send off on Sat. Guess we’ll find out soon enough.

Re: Goalkeeper situation.
Quite agree that Farman should stay as first choice. As for the Fleetwood job, he'd be bonkers to take that. Short term is fine perhaps, but long term? He'd probably be out within six months, the number of times that door revolves! 
Re: Goalkeeper situation.
Heard if he played another game triggered contract extension

Re: Goalkeeper situation.
He triggered that appearance clause last season to extend his stay until end of this season, from then he is out of contract.bluessupporter wrote: ↑Wed Apr 30, 2025 9:58 pmSo why was he on the bench? If Stanway had been injured they were duty bound to put Farman on if he was on the bench.
Re: Goalkeeper situation.
Ben winterbottom coming in from fylde. Surely to be second fiddle to Stanway especially after bens record at relegated fylde last season

Re: Goalkeeper situation.
Don’t confuse the keeper with the club. Watched him twice last season. He’s pretty decent.
Re: Goalkeeper situation.
Wouldn' help playing behind a crap defence. The lad came through Liverpool Academy playing in a couple of Carabao Cup games before joining the much vaunted and at the time revolutionary Brentford B team(who only played friendlies). After signing a new contract at Brentford twelve months ago he was sent out on a season long loan to Fylde for experience. Needless to say the usual negative comments before anyone has even seen him play but sadly its always been a Barrow thing.Only minor negative is that him and Wyll both a similar age and experience will have to learn from one another unless Luke Daniels is still at the club (not heard him mentioned for a while).

Re: Goalkeeper situation.
He is still shown as 'Head of Goalkeeping' on the club site.
Don't let the old man in.
Re: Goalkeeper situation.
He will be welcomed soon. Agreed last year is not much to go on
Re: Goalkeeper situation.
Now Andy Whing is starting a new season I can see back room staff changes for those not on a rolling contract.

Re: Goalkeeper situation.
Such as? He has brought Worrall in. Luke Daniels did a great job last season as goalkeeper coach so that just leaves Jason Taylor who is probably the longest serving individual at the club
